I have no idea if Comet TV has any new episodes that they have not broadcast yet. Or if they're recycling the ones they've shown before. But two episodes every Friday night starting at 10PM Eastern & Pacific.

MST3K is also gonna air on IFC starting January 7th. They only have episodes planned for one week, but it could just be a test run. The first episode they're gonna air is, fittingly enough, The Crawling Eye.
Edit: I didn't realize someone already made a thread about it lol.

I saw one scheduling for an MST3K Marathon starting at 10 AM on April 22 of this year, with no ending time for the marathon.
I can no longer find that listing, either in the monthly emailings they send me.
And, oddly, the Starfighters, which was recently showing first on a Friday night, Followed by EEGAH! early Saturday morning, was in the Comet Feature films listing, for 10 AM April 22, with a running time of 165 mins, which made no sense.
Also, The Mad Monster was listed for April 23, either beginning or ending at 4 PM, I forget which, with a running time of 2 hours, 15 mins which is the ususal Comet running time for MST3K episodes (commercials included).
Both of those film titles have disappeared from the Comet Feature Films list, where I have never seen MST3K episodes listed.
Recently Comet has been running almost entirely continuing series TV shows, with the great number of feature films they had previously shown being greatly reduced to only a handful.
I wish Comet would do a better job with their schedule listings.
They have also listed MST3K for Sunday nights, forget the hour, but I have never seen any Sunday night showings of MST3K on Comet.
The only hopefully reliable schedule they have on their web page is for the present day.

Person, I like your list, but I could not make an accurate list of MST3K episodes I have watched, since when it was first run on Comedy Channel/Comedy Central, and later Sci-Fi Channel, I watched the opening and closing host segments, and parts of the feature films, but did not sit down and watch an episode all the way thru, with rare exceptions. One exception was Day The World Ended, where the riffs were shown as subtitles submmitted by the viewers or staff people other than the MST3K writers? I wish I had kept my VHS of this one but sadd to say I didn't, and so far have found no other fans of the show who remember it. I do remember during the first runs, parts of The Eye Creatures, but I decided not to watch the MST3K version until after I had seen the film in its original form. Same with Teenage Strangler, and after seeing the film original formm, I did watch the entire MST3K version. I remember Joel's escape from the SOL, and Mike's first hosting of The Brain That Would Die with the Jan in the Pan joke, but even tho I had seen that feature film several times in the past, I didn't watch it with Mike and the 'Bots. Lately, wiht the Comet episodes, I have Watched Hercules Unchained, The Starfighters, and the Phantom Planet all the way thru, but on Ring Of Terror, I watched only the short, and the host segments,FFing thru the film itself. Same with the first Hercules film.

The only hopefully reliable schedule they have on their web page is for the present day. I just checked the listings for Comet on my cable listings & while it doesn't specify MST versions (and it hasn't for the Sunday morning episodes, but they are), this is what it says starting at 9AM CDT on Wednesday 4/22: The Starfighters The Phantom Planet Eegah The Indestructible Man The Killer Shrews Cave Dwellers Night of the Blood Beast The Mad Monster Marathon ends at 3AM, so 18 hours. Oh, I hope that is right.

Many thanks for your local cable listings, jedicrippler. It will help me plan my viewing and recording for this week.
Passed by in time, I'm still using VHS tapes, and getting them de commercialized, and put in proper episode number order.
From the list above, I need to get most of the Phantom planet, and All of Cave Dwellers, and the Mad Monster.
I'm just glad for all the MST3K episodes I do have, and in the lineup above, I won't have too many fill-ins to do.
It is a bit depressing to look at the photo at the top of the page, which shows how the Forlorn Rags of Growing Old have ravaged Joel and Mike as well as the rest of us.
It's hard to believe that MST3K is so far in the past. If I live long enough, I might be caught up enough to check out the 2017 revival of the show. For the present, I have a lot of catching up to do.
In my recent viewings, including a Crow's Favorite Host Segments VHS, I am surprised at how many characters Mike played in the host segments before Joel left the show, and Mike became the host.

Thanks again to jedicrippler for giving his local cable Comet schedule here on the board. It was correct, and I am now recording The Phantom Planet.
I'll then skip over EEGAH, INDESTRUCTABLE MAN and KILLER SHREWS, giving me a six hour and 45 minute rest from the marathon, since I already have those episodes saved on VHS.
The, it will be 9:15 tonight, and I will need to record Cave Dwellers. From 11:30 PM till 12:45 AM tomorrow morning, I will also skip Night of the Blood Beast, which I also have, then record the last episode of the Marathon, The Mad Monster, which I don't now have,my total gain from the Marathon being 3 more episodes.
I'm sure other message board members will also be watching and/or recording today's MST3K Marathon on Comet TV.

I'm just Tivoing the whole thing so I have another option for a random quick marathon. Or something to leave on if there's nothing else on anywhere for my pooch. I already have one block of 7 or 8 Star Wars films from winter 2018.

Glad you have all that stuff for you and your pooch to watch, jedicrippler.
Just checked the Comet schedule, and, today, no MST3K. Only 2 feature films earlier in the day, then just marathons of series TV shows.
I'm wondering if Wednesday 10 AM-4 AM Thursday might be their regular weekly time for MST3K, marathon style, as with these other TV series?
I suppose I won't find that out until Wednesday of next week. I still have some MST3K episodes to watch for the first time, and don't want to get too many.
I have not yet watched 2 DVD episodes a friend sent me yet.
And, I do have more VHS recordings I have made from Comet. Seems like they show an equal number of Joel and Mike hosted episodes.

The only times the show is on Comet for the next two weeks is Sunday from 10:30am to 3pm. That might be the time going forward, random marathons aside.

Today's episodes were Hercules and Hercules Unchained, both of which I have, but in my first recording of Hercules, my tape got off to a glitchy start, so I was able to re-do the beginning of that episode.
